Looking for the best RPK loadout in Warzone 2 and MW2? Then you’ve come to the right place! The RPK is a very beloved LMG of the Call of Duty: Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2 players due to its quick TTK. However, this LMG received many nerfs in the previous seasons, and you can no longer kill the enemies with 3 shots in any range. But does it mean that RPK is a low-tier weapon? Not so — this firearm still packs a punch in most situations, and here are the best loadouts you can use for it.
Best RPK Loadout for Long Range in Warzone 2
- Barrel: Tac 597 Barrel
- Muzzle: ZLR Talon 5
- Underbarrel: Ftac Ripper 56
- Rear Grip: Bracle LS
- Optic: VLK 4.0 Optic or Forge Tac Delta 4
For Warzone 2, you’re probably looking for the most steady build of the RPK. First things first, pick a Tac 597 barrel to increase the damage range and maintain some recoil stabilization. Next, you’ll need a ZLR Talon 5 silencer muzzle to double the price. You can still go for the Lockshot and other muzzles to reduce flinch and recoil. But remember that ZLR Talon 5 increases both the range and the accuracy.
Now for the maximum accuracy and recoil steadiness on this weapon, pick the Demo-X2 Grip for your rear grip. You might be tempted to use the Bracle LS grip here for its stats on the accuracy, but if you try both of these attachments and test them, you’ll find the Demo-X2 much more suitable. However, you still need a Ftac Ripper 56 rear grip to make this RPK loadout more stable for Warzone 2‘s long-range battles.
Best RPK Loadout for MW2 Multiplayer
- Barrel: Kas-7 406mm Barrel
- Stock: Prolite TL3 Stock
- Rear Grip: Demo-X2 Grip
- Magazine: 40-Round Mag
- Optic: Corio RE-X Pro
The Multiplayer mode of Modern Warfare 2 has some large maps. You can still use the Warzone 2 loadout of the RPK on these maps, but if you want a lighter version of this LMG, you need to pick a suitable barrel. The Kas-7 406mm Barrel will do the trick. Not only will you gain a huge movement speed with this barrel, but you’ll also get some recoil control!
Next on the list for making your RPK an assault rifle is the TL3 Stock. This stock slightly sacrifices the accuracy but adds speed to your movement and the ADS time. After that, it’s time for a 40 Round Mag; this is the ultimate attachment to make your RPK an assault rifle. This goes without measures that if you remove a 75-round mag and replace it with a 40-round one, your ADS time and movement agility will significantly increase.

Now for both RPK loadouts here in Warzone 2 and MW2, remember to pick a suitable optic. We recommend a scope like the VLK 4.0 for hitting ranged targets on Warzone or a “less-zooming” one like the Corio RE-X Pro for Multiplayer mode. However, this choice will not affect the overall stats of the weapon that much, and you can choose it based on your playstyle. Also, remember to tune the attachments for less recoil and more accuracy on RPK loadout in Warzone 2, and add more speed in the MW2 loadout of this LMG.
Call of Duty: Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2 are available to play on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC via Steam and Battle.Net.
